men assembled within the inclosure.
The party gathered around the pit,
while Forrest placed himself on a
plank laid directly across the pit.
At given signal Mills removed the
plugs from the furnace, and the molten
bronze began to pour out from the
furnace to the mold below. Unfortun-
ately some water had got into the
mold and terrible explosion took
place; the earth, sand, and molten
metal flew in all directions. Mills was
knocked heels over head; one of the
sides OF the inclosure was blown out;
half the guests were knocked down OF
covered with earth; some were scorch.
ed, the others fled in dismay. When
the smoke and steam had cleared
away Mills rose from the earth and
discovered Forrest still standing on
the plank across the pit. "Great

he could get his breath. "Mr. Forrest.

How could those fellows knowf I am

per-" he said, pathetically, "and Har-
but, Miss Anna?"
His eyes apolo9ized amply for this
inquiry, aud 1 went in search Of the
men and their charge.
They followed me eagerly, and we
iinconsciously fell into q procession
and moved through the door with
"Miss Anna" in our midst. It
must have been a strange sight,
half dozen men and goat march
ing solemnly up the aisle Uf the rude
cabin, to the credit OF human nature
be it said, nobody laughed or seemed
to observe the humorous side OF the
situation.
"Miss Anna!"
The voice broke like a sob across
the stiffness. and the faithful friend
pressed close to her masters side. The
strong men who had faced death SO
unflinchingly all day quivered and
shrank back before this new phase.
Orphee looked longingly into the dy.
ing face as the white lips murmured
of bygone days, OF baby hands and
tender wifely kisses.
"Miss ANNA" the voice, began
again, weakly, "the boys all know
and love her." and then sudden
ly recollecting, he turned his
eyes on the manly bearded faces
around him, and noted their moist t
eyes, then with the old frank smile of
appreciation, he muttered: "Dying
tonight, dying tonight. Sing it, Or
phee."
The river rushed and sang, the wind
sighed airily through the sorrowful
pines, but distinct and clear rose the
voice of Orphee, that sweet, high tenor,
thrilling with tears and pathos. 1t
Quivered and lell as it reached the
chorus, and the "dying tonight" was
sobbed out on his knees as he held the
poor, cold hands close to his breast.
The wounded men turned on the
rough floor, the surgeons desisted
from their work, and one little fellow,
his breast shot to pieces, crossed him.
self ihvoluntarily, stirred by the sor-
rowiul sweetness.
Again Parsons spoke:
"Be good boys, to Miss Anna No
better, truer sweetheart could you
find. Say with me now, God bless
Miss Anna."
And we said it with him.
| "Amen," he answered solemnly, and
with a spasm of pain was lying there
quite still, smiling tenderly, as OF old,
with Miss Anna" close to his breast.
"And Miss Anna?'" asked the host.
"Was shot down the next morning
in the first charge"
| There was silence for few minutes,
and then Harrison raised his glass,
and looked wistfully around. In an in.
slant the glasses were refilled. and with
reverently bowed heads and hushed
tones, the whole room drank to the
memory of "Miss Anna"

Would Not Say "Damn."

from the Boeton Record.
There was established not very long
ago in Maine town a weekly news
paper which was intended by the pro-
prietor, very pious man, to grow up
and wax rich on the basis of publica-
ton and editing in the utmost fear OF
the Lord. No advertisements Of any
plays. dances, lotteries, patent bitters
with alcohol in them, improved cor
sets, or anything doubtful whatever.
were to be admitted. Nothing that
was criminal. irreverent, or even a
little bit frisky was admitted to the
news columns. Above all the words
"damn," which the proprietor found
was creeping into the press altogether
too markedly, was never to be printed.
Naturally the proprietor couldn't see
everything that went into the paper,
but the boys followed his orders very
strictly. One day he had occasion,
in an editorial which he himself wrote,
to use classical reference, which
came out in the paper as follows:
.'The President may, in tact, feel that
the sword of D-ocles is now hang
ing over him."
This startled the proprietor a
little, but he reflected that the
boys had only followed his orders,
and that it might break them all up
to find FAULT with them, and so he said
nothing about it.
But . few weeks afterward he felt
that the thing was really being carried
too far when the text Of q discourse
which had been delivered by the village
pastor, and which he had ordered pub
Jished in his paper, was printed at the
head Of the sermon In this wise

BAND now it is winter fairly This morning dawned upon the city ln drearl- ness; there were snow falls and sleet show CTS with intermittent sprinklings of rain Instead of the slush of which we have been complaining, there was slipperiness every where; the dangers of walking even to those of the frmest foothold, were mani fest, and we need not say what it was to the aged, infrm or. .incautious We refer to this condition of things for the purpose of giving a word in season to the boys who improve the occasion of slpperiness by the Improvisation of slides on the footways as they go along This increases the dan ger to pedestrians; and the fable of the boys casting stones at frogs in the pool, as told by Esop longago oillustratesthe position. 'sWhat's fun to you is death to us, remon- strated the frogs. May not the ordinary wayfarer say to the boys of the present enjoying their passing slides on the path ways, "What's fun to you is danger to us. Y" The police officers should look to this; but parental lecture at home would be far more eficacious. While writing the foregoing the rain began to pour down, not ill inter mittent sprinking, but in one continued and continuing deluge; and as we go to press it seems to have "no mind to change" It is as dreary an afternoon as could well be imagined, suggesting the name of our city as Water-borough instead of Water brry

THE City Fathers have exhibited. pater- nal consideration for the boys of the city. The men who can remember that they were once boys, possess the qualifications of genial humanity; better still perhaps the sentiment of those who can exclaim heartily with Byron: "Oh, happy days Once more who would not be boy;" or utter the aspiration of the American poet:
 I love to look on a scene like this,
 Of careless youth at play;
 And persuade myself that I'm not yet old.
 That my hair is not yet gray.
 But, poetry apart, we had matter of fact sympathy with the boys in our Council Chamber last night. Toboggan sliders, if there be any amongst Us, will find fitting localities for the enjoyment, but the boys and girls, when out at play" in the number coasting enjoyment need places near home; and these the Board of Coun- cilmen have granted, as will be seen by our report of proceedings elsewhere. This concession may act as an inducement to the boys to forego the sidewalk slides, re ferred to in another paragraph.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1887-12-28

THE Board of Councilmen closed their official career last night by the perform ance of an act of practical and praiseworthy good. They voted S6,000 for that stone crushing work recommended by the Con- missioners of Roads; and thus, it may be said, has commenced the first step in mak- ing our thoroughfares even partially passa- ble. The sum is not very large, to be sure, and will not go far in redeeming our roads, or what should be roads-from the knee deep muddiness of the original soil; but it is beginning, and the advantages of even macadam concrete experienced in few isolated localities may lead to such general desire for improvement in these regards that no future Boards, Commissioners, Al dermen or Councillors will dare to stop the way.
